A source close to the star told The Sun: “Raheem said a few words which were incredibly powerful and moving.

"He understood this was a public declaration of his faith and an opportunity to cleanse himself of any ego, or bad habits of the past.”

Sterling is in line to make his Gunners debut today against Tottenham.
